Myanmar done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Accommodation was a notch better than the price suggested. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude. Would send friends their way.

Too much time on the coach and not enough at the places we'd come for.

Well paced over 8 days with enough free time to not feel herded. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. Food was plentiful and hot, which counts for a lot at altitude.

Myanmar done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Rooms were comfortable and the locations meant we could walk most evenings. No hesitation recommending them.
